Where in South America is safe/unsafe to visit?


Travel Info
My friend has gone travelling, she has started in Buenos Aires, and is planning on going across, then up through Chile, Ecuador, Columbia, then through central america to Mexico. Is there anywhere in particular she should avoid?

Travel Tips
Most everywhere in S America is safe as long as you use common sense! Don't dress really flashy, walk by yourself down the street at night, keep purses/personal items in your lap, and small things like this it is really safe. The only people I ever heard of having problems (at least in the better parts of the towns) were generally walking alone or with one other person at night after drinking a lot. Just pay lots of attention to your surroundings and you'll be fine. I've heard that outside of larger cities in Columbia can be dangerous for Americans, but that might be just a rumor.

South America is not another world. You should take care of yourself just like in anywhere. Say her: Enjoy it! It's really great.
